Indeed it is a sad story that the dabwali chaps are responsible for the demise of the CJ3B as randeep pointed out.Now these people have started the same fabrication business on the 550 chassis.Soon the the 550's will also be a dying breed. there are couple of good fabricators who do cater to individual customer demands,this i know by personal experience because i have got numerous body parts,seat frames,hood brackets etc fabricated from them.One is called Nindi and the other is called Dhanna.
If one has patience to hunt for parts from shop to shop then one does tend to find something or other useful from Dabwali.
